Terrace to Calgary route among the cuts for West Jet

changes to their BC and Alberta
flight options on Monday

Calgary based WestJet was busy rerouting a number or routes on their schedule on Monday, adding some expanded capacity to eastern Canada and new cross border destinations, while reducing service in Alberta and some of the regional connections between that province and British Columbia.
